About this cottage rental

Situated in Lake Wisconsin, this charming cottage for $234 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Rent this furnished cottage to enjoy the beauty of nature on the Wisconsin River and Lake Wisconsin. Conveniently located on shallow Lake Wisconsin waterfront with sandbars to wade to between Madison and the Wisconsin Dells, just 1.5 hours from Milw and 3 hours from Chicago. Bring some firewood (or buy it locally) and have a campfire in the firepit next to the water! This 2 bedroom, 2 bath, 2-story cottage has a bright, clean kitchen and a wonderful open layout on the first floor. Beautiful views out the large living room windows look onto green, sandy islands, sandbars and the undeveloped distant shores of the Wisconsin River as it opens up into Lake WI. Explore the many channels, sandbars, and islands of the WI River and Lake WI. Same owner as smaller cottage next door. SPRING, SUMMER, FALL & WINTER Adventures! Green trees, sunny sand-bars, and a lazy river await you. Tucked off the main channel the cottage has the best of both worlds…easy assess to the big water, a great view of the water and sunsets, but little boat traffic. Because of our shallow waterfront location, the choice is yours, launch your boat at one of 3 nearby boat launchs and head left for Lake Wisconsin or go right for the Wisconsin River. You’ve got it all right here! You can launch your boat daily and spend an exciting day on the open water of the lake (too shallow to get a boat of any size into our channel but you can park your trailer in front at the end of the day) or a quiet day exploring the Dells-like bluffs and the nearby islands, coves, and backwaters in your canoe or kayak. The shallow water in front is great for kayaks and canoes. Explore the many channels, sandbars, and islands of the WI River and Lake WI. Relax with friends or family on the deck after a day canoeing or kayaking around the sandy tree-covered islands. Enjoy shallow water fishing from the sandbar in front, from our canoe, or use a boat to hit several of the best local fishing spots all within 5 minutes of the cottage: The Narrows, Fockes Bluffs, Tipperary Bluffs, and Camp Rest Park. Good fishing for Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, White Bass, Catfish, Largemouth, Crappie and more. The cottage has a green lawn for yard games or for kids to run around in, plus just a block away is a park with playground equipment and wading beach, perfect for small children and dogs. Tennis and basketball courts are just a mile up the road. Bike riding opportunities on winding country roads in the area are fantastic. Up for a challenge? Circle Lake Wisconsin on your bike, it's about a 50-60 mile trip with a free ferryboat crossing as a highlight! This two bedroom, two bathroom house has a full kitchen and an open layout. The kitchen is equipped with all you’ll need to prepare any meal you like…or grill out on waterside deck on the gas grill! Feeling lazy? Kick back and enjoy the 47” flat screen LCD HDTV, so...relax, sip a drink, even surf the web, and watch the river go by! Beautiful views out the large living room windows and across the 16’x25’ deck look onto green, sandy islands and the undeveloped distant shores of the Wisconsin River as it opens up into Lake Wisconsin. FALL & WINTER FUN! After the summer crowds leave you’ll find unique beauty and tranquility on the river. Tucked in among the surrounding bluffs and hillsides you’ll find gorgeous fall colors and dazzling winter scenery. Hundreds of wooded acres across the street are home to the Red Bellied Woodpecker, Wild Turkey, and White Tailed Deer, while the ever-changing river offers views of Sandhill Cranes, Bald Eagles, Beaver, and Muskrat. Scenic drives in all directions make interesting day trips more fun! Many nearby day-trip possibilities including the Wollensheim Winery, Wisconsin Dells, Devil's Lake State Park, Baraboo Circus World Museum, and so much more. Nearby ski hills include Cascade Mountain (15 min) and Devilshead Lodge (30 min). So much to see and so much to do! Relaxing! Fish for Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, White Bass, Catfish, Largemouth, Crappie, and more. Many nearby day-trip possibilities including the WI Dells, Devil's Lake State Park, Baraboo Circus World Museum, and more! Great bird-watching!

We had a phenomenal time! So close to cascade for skiing. The biggest bonus is that our family dog could come with, and that was huge for us. Hot tub was amazing! Kids had their own spot, and lots of entertaining games and movies! Want to come back in the summer!

Island View Hideaway is a cozy relaxing place. Lots of places to walk our dog, even with it being rainy!! It was just what we were looking for!! So much to watch right outside the back patio doors. The only suggestion would be to have a grab bar attached to the shower or side wall of the toilet for folks who have trouble getting up from the low toilet.

Lovely cottage right on the lake. Kitchen well stocked. Staircase for upstairs is a little tricky, definitely not for elderly people. Property and cottage nicely kept. We would come back

Very nice cabin/house on the backwaters of the Wisconsin River. Mostly kayaks and canoes passing by. Great area to just float and enjoy scenery. The property with a nice sand bar in front makes for a peaceful setting. The furniture and amenities within the home are in very good condition with name brand appliances. Everything worked and was easy to get into vacation mode. Thank goodness for the Wifi, cell single can be spotty. The property manager stopped by and was quick to fix/adjust/ and offer help. He really went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable. We really liked the property and plan to be back next summer.

This place is very clean and relaxing. The veiw of the river is beautiful and there are multiple species of birds every morning just hanging around the bird feeder. You can even go outside and sit down with a cup of coffee and the birds will still come. The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet also. If you need to unwind from day to day stuff this is the place to go.
